Hi everyone!
I’m eloping on Kauai this November and I’m feeling stuck between these two dresses. Asking for some opinions!
Option A: I tried on first, and had that ‘almost in tears’ moment when we put the veil on. But it was from a shop very far away (tried it on visiting my mom) and at the top end of my budget. The bodice would also need to be shortened to get the desired effect I wanted (I have a short torso 🤷🏼♀️). Material was light/ perfect for beach wedding and the style was what I envisioned myself wearing.
Option B: I went to a shop closer to home hoping to find a dress similar to Option A. Tried on a few and did not love them. The stylist put me in Option B and it (seriously) looked like it was made for me- every other dress I tried on looked so blah next to it. I didn’t almost cry, but I did get the tingles and couldn’t stop smiling. I forgot about all my usual clothing related insecurities and felt beautiful. Plus, the dress was well within my budget even adding on the veil in the picture (WHICH I LOVED), and would require super minimal alterations. My hang up is that this dress is not what I envisioned myself walking down the aisle in! I never wanted a sweetheart neckline or something quite so fitted. And I think the first dress may fit a beachier vibe?

Thoughts?! I’m never this indecisive and am so afraid of making the wrong choice!!
Thank you so much in advance for any advice/opinions you can share. Everyone I shopped with said either would be perfect 🤦🏼♀️
